The Beauchamp Chapel, St Mary's church, Warwick

 

 

 

The Beauchamp Chapel
“The Collegiate Church of St. Mary, Warwick, houses a chapel that is considered second only to Westminster Abbey as the most lavish family burial chapel in the country.  And of all the jewels contained within, the greatest is a fifteenth-century tomb, hailed by Simon Jenkins as ‘one of the masterpieces of medieval art,’  for its intricate stonework and superbly crafted effigy made of latten, an alloy akin to bronze.  Importantly, it is almost complete, having survived the desecration and destruction of the Reformation in the sixteenth century and the Civil Wars of the seventeenth.  Fortunately or us, the chapel was protected by powerful patrons:  the earls of Warwick.
“The tomb is that of one of their number Richard Beauchamp, 13th Earl and the former tutor to the King.  On its four sides are beautifully carved gilt bronze statuettes of his children and their spouse:  dukes and duchesses, earls and countesses–the top echelon of the mobility that served the Lancastrian regime.  Indeed, these were people at its very heart.  With this in mind, one side’s five individual figures of men in mourning clothes are
particularly striking.  These five shared a chilling fate:  they either died in battle or were captured and executed immediately afterwards.  But they died not in one event but  in five separate engagements, four of which took place over the course of just seven years; the fifth, a decade later.”

the 14 m tall pineapple topped building presides over a wall garden that legends says once grew pineapples among other things.

 

The pineapple wasn’t added until after 1777, when Lord Dunmore returned from serving as governor of Virginia, 

 

where it is said that sailors put pineapples on their gate posts to announce they were home—legend says that Lord Dunmore announced his return with a bit more permanent play on that tradition.

 

The building is rented to vacationers by the Landmark Trust
